I liked this book. It deserves it’ s best selling reputation.

You are out on a photo shoot with Scott Kelby. and he answers your questions. He tells you what to do to get a better picture, and not about the subject of photography.

Scott Kelby says I’ve never seen a field where equipment makes as big a difference as it does in photography. To get pro results sometime you have to use (and that means to buy) what the pros use.

Scott tells you what the pros use, but you can use his advice with your digital equipment to do most of what he tells you to do to improve your pictures.
